Who We Are: A borough-wide initiative promoting inclusive neighbourhood participation.
Islington Street Associations began with Nicky Ludgate, a well-known and beloved community organiser from Islington who teamed up with experienced volunteers from around the neighbourhood, and residents of Elmore Street – the street on which Islington Street Associations first stepped foot, to encourage residents to get together and create a happier, safer and better connected street on which they live.
Islington Street Associations now comprises of six Street Associations: Elmore Street, Elizabeth Avenue & Yeate Street, Halliford Street, Cleveland Road, Almorah Road and Bentham Court.
